Disney World Collecting Fingerprints

cvd6262 writes "Disney World is now requiring all visitors to have their index and middle fingers scanned to gain entrance to the park. This started for season pass holders, but is now required for everyone." From the article: "'I think it's a step in the wrong direction,' Civil Liberties Union spokesman George Crossley said. 'I think it is a step toward collection of personal information on people regardless of what Disney says.'"

    THE VANDALS LYRICS

    "Pirate's Life"

    Seven hits of L
    and nobody could tell
    So I spent every dime
    just to get to Aniehem

    I was in the Magic Kingdom
    Now I'm in the Carribean
    You get something really wicked
    when you spend an E-ticket

    High adventure on the sea,
    but it's not the life for me
    Now those harry tatooed pirates are all chasing after me
    I was threatened with a knife by a pirate playing fife
    Now I'm sailing for my life thanks to LSD 25

    Where can I hide?
    I don't want to buy a bride
    I'm alone as I float
    Hey, there were others in my boat

    Up ahead, one of the men
    he said he would be my friend
    He'd guide me to the hole
    If I deeded him my soul

    To the hole I didn't make it
    That doesn't mean he didn't take it
    He laughed at my plight
    He said you'll be one of us tonight

    High adventure on the sea,
    but it's not the life for me
    Now those harry tatooed pirates are all chasing after me
    I was threatened with a knife by a pirate playing fife
    Now I'm sailing for my life thanks to LSD 25

    He was right, I'm still here
    as I have been, for over a year
    With my last bit of hope,
    a tin can and rope
    I just want to break free

    But I can't get away
    No I can't get away
    cause that damn dog's got the key
    No one listens as I tell
    of my ordeal in this cell

    They stand right by
    but they don't fell
    Is this for real?
    Is this for real!

    Based on the lyrics, I think I know why they are doing this.

    so first you serve us the
    "don't like it take your business elsewhere" crap

    ok, that's fine

    but uh oh , that only works in a free market, under the 20 more years every 20 year copyright system only disney can sell you disney copyrighted material.

    where the frack are you supposed to take your business to when you have a governement protected never expiring monopoly ?

    put that in you free market pipe and smoke it !

    Because Disney taking fingerprints will totally stop any terrorist action from happening at their parks. "OMG! They have our *fingerprints*. There is no way we can carry out a suicide attack now!!!"
